Created from the artist’s personal archival materials White Noise two channel video installation provides the visitors with an opportunity to plunge into the everyday life of a mother. An honest, head-on documentation of such an experience gives an eloquent idea of how difficult it is to raise a child.
Nestled in a corner of the exhibition room, White Noise invites with an open door reminiscent of a children's room cupboard, featuring wallpaper with innocent drawings. Inside, a teddy bear holds a TV displaying the artist's video work, while children's clothes hang on the cupboard doors and toys are strewn about, metaphorically revealing hidden truths, much like the saying 'Skeleton in the closet,' exposing the concealed realities of motherhood.
